The Friday episode of The Mikey Show on FM 94.9 featured a mix of comedy, sports debate, and heavy personal storytelling. Host Mikey and regulars Woods, Jay, and L.O.B. discussed Comic-Con's 1970s origins and celebrity attendees, debated whether drawing X-Men constitutes art, and reacted to a caller's story about a murder suspect's Facebook party. They played a chaotic hallway soccer game 'Let's Shootout' where Woods' broken ankle was re-injured and his kick mocked, then pranked him with a secretly posted salon photo making him look like 'Fat Bradley Cooper' under a hair dryer. The show tackled tipping norms from LA Weekly, debated employee vs. boss work behavior, and concluded with Tiger Woods firing his longtime caddy Steve Williams amid sour grapes and a sex-scandal context. The episode closed with Mikey's emotional testimony about surviving childhood sexual abuse, years of addiction and anger, finding faith in Jesus, and introducing Red's 'Not Alone' song with help resources.
